Free Mail Commander

Free Mail Commander is a Windows email utility that supports SMTP, POP3 and IMAP4 protocols, as well as secure connections (SSL/TLS). You may compose, receive and send emails, as well as receive and read plain text and HTML messages.

You can take advantage of its portability status and store it on USB flash drives so you can have it with you all the time. Gaining access to the program’s features requires only opening the executable file.

The GUI looks a bit outdated. It reveals a clean feature lineup but it cannot be described as highly intuitive so you may need extra time in order to decode the configuration settings.

You can compose email messages, make use of the built-in spell checker that highlights the misspelled words in your messages, embed images, as well as run, open, view and copy attachments.

What’s more, the tool is able to automatically complete the name and email address, and lets you group your email messages into custom folders, pick the preferred character encoding, and sort messages by date, subject, address or other fields.

You can change the read/unread status, color and priority of the messages and set up color labels in order to sort your emails either manually or automatically using filters. The utility lets you import messages from Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, The Bat!, and FastTrack Mail.

Free Mail Commander automatically filters incoming messages based on preset criteria, blocks remote images and scripts, as well as block viruses and Trojans from infiltrating into your system.

All things considered, Free Mail Commander provides several handy features for helping you manage your emails. There are also other versions of the program, namely Mail Commander Home, Mail Commander Pro and Mail Commander Deluxe, in case you are looking for advanced features.

For example, Mail Commander Deluxe is the most powerful one, as it comes with support for antispam message header analyzer, message queuing and scheduling options, grouped views, address books, duplicate removal, email blacklists by message content, message searches, and attachment filters by file extension.
